The NBA's Dallas Mavericks are one of the richest franchises in the entire league, and this Southwest Division competitor is a top pick in the Western Conference year after year. A fan favorite on the basketball court since the team's inception in 1980, this Texas crew has been selling Dallas Mavericks tickets like crazy for years, still continuing to illuminate the Dallas scene with some incredible hoops action! With the additions of NBA All-Star forward Elton Brand and guard O.J. Mayo to a roster boasting Dirk Nowitzki, Shawn Marion, and Vince Carter, the Mavs are poised to be NBA Championship contenders yet again.

Dallas Mavericks History

The Dallas Mavericks were purchased by Don Carter and Norm Sonju in 1979, bringing basketball back to Dallas for the first time since 1973, when the Dallas Chaparrals moved to San Antonio, and eventually became the San Antonio Spurs. The Mavericks, named after the '50s western of the same name, won their very first game against the San Antonio Spurs in 1980, and with the help of Jay Vincent and Rolando Blackman the Mavs became fierce competitors in the mid-'80s.

The mid-to-late '80s were fruitful for the Mavericks, but in the early '90s the team went through a tough rebuilding phase. With the purchase of the team in 2000, new owner Mark Cuban was determined to build a successful franchise, and turn the Dallas Mavericks into NBA Championship contenders. The Mavs would enjoy several successful seasons, making their first appearance in the NBA Finals in 2006, but ultimately losing to the Miami Heat after a 2-0 series lead. However in 2011, Dallas won its first NBA Championship, beating the Miami Heat in a 2006 NBA Finals rematch, and proudly hung their first championship banner in the rafters at American Airlines Center.

Dallas Mavericks Fans

With not one but two mascots at their side, the Dallas Mavericks have discovered the key to success when it comes to their fan base. The Mavericks' Champ the Horse and Mavs Man are two separate but equal entities on the mascot front, and the two characters get crowds riled up at home games during basketball season.
